Chapter 2 | THE KING’S GUARD

The King’s Guard is a group of bodyguards who protect the King or Queen of England. Characteristic of their striking clothing is the red costume, but especially the enormous hat that falls largely over their heads.

Exercise 1: draw a King’s guard but this time use your fingerprint for the HAT instead of the face. Start with the hat.

Exercise 2: You can also make up other things with fingerprints, such as these little birds by illustrator Saul Steinberg. You might also like to make up birds or other things with your fingerprint.

And if you want to take a rest, simply use your fingerprint as a seat cushion.
